Barkers Annual Staffordshire Stride
Donation protected
The Barkers team will take on ‘The Staffordshire Stride’, a walking challenge to raise vital funds to support three charities; The Indi Club, North Staffs Mind and Action for Children.
The 12K circular route will start in Stone, loop through Barlaston and back to Stone, on Saturday 14th September 2024.
The Barkers team will be joined by students from Abbey Hill School and College, and the some members from the Indi Club! The route has been designed to be more inclusive and accessible, and is suitable for people with disabilities and limited mobility. Participants also have the option to join the walk at a later stage in the route, with a reduced walking distance to enable more people to take part.
All funds raised will be split equally between three charities, who are doing amazing work to support our local communities.
